Sorry
The information I have provided fell short, this may cause misunderstanding!
- The name of the agreement is "memorandum of agreement" it has all contracting elements and details; it is in the petrochemical industry.

disagree Rum : إن مصطلح تعاون يخلق إشكالية قانونية من ناحية المسؤلية و طبيعة العلاقة أنصح بإستبداله ب تفاهم

مذكرة

As far as diplomatic language is concerned, it is a Mudhakarra. You can call it مذكرة تعاون because of the context, but it is not the agreement itself - note: "purpose of an MOA is to have a written understanding of the agreement between parties", which means that it actually EXPLAINS the agreement.

مذكرة تفاهم

كلمة مذكرة أفضل من إتفاقية حيث أن الأولى تعنى بالخطوط العريضة المتفق عليها حتى يتسنى بعد ذلك الخوض بالتفاصيل في الإتفاقية
